MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant
MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
nod64 What's unfolding is my attention with this dross."An exciting and relevant new take on the Haunted House story." Who said this? Was it the mother of the writer? This film is duller than a 3W bulb. Found footage certainly isn't a new take, neither are jump scares. You get a lots of stuff happening off screen, and not a lot happening on screen.I agree with what another reviewer said. Methinks the good reviews were written by friends and family of the cast and crew.I ended up turning it off, so no idea if there was an amazing twist, and I don't care either.Are they sure it wasn't meant for Shitefest instead of Frightfest? Watch something else, like Housebound instead.http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3504048/?ref_=nv_sr_1
mendzel All of these favorable reviews were posted within days of the films release (March 14th 2016) and many claim to be from England (filming location of movie) Many of these reviewers have ONLY reviewed ONE FILM! (This one) All of these reviewers gave this film AT LEAST 8 stars.If anyone involved in the film (aka the fake reviewers) is reading this, please take note: YOU ARE RUINING IMDb! It has become a biased, fictitious ratings-land where the average consume cannot get an objective review of a film.My suggestion: move along to a film that stands on its own merit and doesn't need to trick you into viewing.
manticoreaw Thoroughly enjoyed the preview screening I saw a few weeks back, it was refreshing to see a British take on the genre. Believable characters with a genuine reason for CCTV cameras to be in place to counter the hand-held shots, nice location work and excellent sound mixing/editing to compound the atmosphere/scares make it one of the better found footage horror films of recent times. Make sure you see it with a good sound system for maximum effect.It's also good to see characters acting with rationality, instead of highly unlikeable idiots with iphones running about wildly (looking at you Area 51/Bigfoot Chronicles) despite the supernatural occurring around them.Well worth a watch for any FFH buff.
salinajane i loved this movie. Really atmospheric and the slow build up of tension to the point when everyone screamed and jumped in their seats was brilliant. Some clever intriguing twists going on in the back story add to the atmosphere. Along with great performances make for a must see in my books. Great direction and moody lighting, the tension builds from the off. By the end of the film I was buzzing, with having me and the rest of the audience having such a great reaction to the film. Superb! I want to go see it again!
